8. “Dad?! WTF?!!”
A DNA test to give you answers?! You know that is impossble, right?!
Seriously?! A medical specialist, a genetic counselor, a clinical geneticist, a
lab specialist, a bioinformatician and a social worker?! And 3 forms?! For
a simple DNA test?!
A doctor who interprets your genetic profile?! Wasn’t there an app for that?!
No one could use your genetic data?! Then why did you generate them?!
You and mum got me without prior knowledge?!
How have you been able to LIVE?!!

12. Klinkt dit nu nog heel futuristisch? Nee
hoor, bijvoorbeeld: de prijs om je hele
DNA set te analyseren is spectaculair
gedaald in maar een paar jaar tijd.
16. Dus bij mensen die een been zijn
verloren, dat deze automatisch weer
kan aangroeien?
Kunnen we virussen maken die ons
beschermen tegen alle ziektes?
Worden we een soort supermensen
door DNA hacking?

Editor's Notes
Well, first of all, we overlook that genetics plays a role in an increasing number of life stages, and will eventually be important throughout life. Yet many issues around personal genomes are considered within their tradiotinal context. For example, a specific regalutaroy framework has recently been developed around NIPT, but there has been hardly any consideration on how NIPT data could be used in later stages of life.
Now, likely there are many more elephants that we do not see at the moment. A good way to bring these elephants to the surface, is by simulating some scenarios that may occur when personal genome sequencing is broadly applied.
To show what I mean, I would to introduce to you Michael Snyder, professor at Stanford University and director of the Stanford Center for Genomics and Personalised Medicine. He is just an ordinary professor, with a lab, some PhD students, postdocs, and a couple of sequencing machines and mass spectrometers.
But professoor Snyder is also this, a large collection of DNA sequences, metabolic profiles expressed proteins etc. For more than 14 months, Snyder had his lab subject him to a variety of –omics measurements. He had his entire genome sequenced, had blood drawn regularly for extensive omics profiling and glucose measurement. Identified susceptibility for diabetes, and developed diabetes, two viral infextions, and events of RNA editing
